dude n. slang 1 fellow. 2 US dandy. 3 US city-dweller staying on a ranch. [German dial. dude fool]
dandy —n. (pl. -ies) 1 man greatly devoted to style and fashion. 2 colloq. excellent thing. —adj. (-ier, -iest) esp. US colloq. splendid. [perhaps from the name Andrew]
these are the entries in POD. So, this term can mean a host of the types of addresses for someone, but as i felt it is used simply to mean 'fellow', in a rather non formal way.
